I have such fond memories of playing Ghost and Goblins and Ghouls and Ghosts. I would buy extra controllers so when I got pissed off at the game I could break my controller. Now we have Maximo and boy do the memories come flooding back. This is one tough mutha that shows no mercy. The graphics are sharp and level design is well done. The main character is cool and it's tough to keep the boy dressed. Every time he gets hit a little clothing or armor comes off. This game could have sold more copies if Capcom would have toned down the difficulty. It starts out hard and never lets up. Unlimited continues would have been nice too. It seems they did everything they could to make us mad. Don't get me wrong the game is good but I have a love hate relationship with it. This game could end up being hard to find so pick it up while you can. Just make sure you buy extra controllers.
